Chapter 115 Big News (Part 2)
When Shen Ning recruits troops, he must recruit elites.

He is a great benefactor of Changli County, the people are grateful to Dai Ze, in order to repay him, countless military households came to accept the recruitment, within three or four days, almost all the military households in Changli County came.

So Shen Ning asked Zhang Liao and Lu Xun to choose carefully, and selected 100 people, with Lu Xun as the team leader.

Three thieves' strongholds were wiped out and a lot of money was gained.

A small part was sent to Changli county magistrate to express, a part was sent to the southeast prince's mansion, and the rest was distributed by Shen Ning to his subordinates.

Shen Ning said that the rewards and punishments are clear, and the brothers will not be disadvantaged if they hang out with him. Although they are military households and eat military rations, the money and rations they can get are limited. They have family members behind them, and they all have to eat and drink.

Now Shen Ning rewarded them with money equivalent to a year's income, everyone was very excited, and their loyalty and sense of belonging immediately condensed.

Silver is a vulgar thing, but it can do things, so don't say that silver is vulgar, talents are the most vulgar.

The soldiers who went to Pengcheng to report their exploits also returned, bringing back a letter from Sima Haiyun.

In the letter, Sima Haiyun boasted a lot, and he was full of excitement between the lines, as if Shen Ning was so powerful, it was all due to him.

Sima Haiyun also said that Sima Yue was surprised that Shen Ning succeeded in suppressing the bandits so quickly. He praised Shen Ning's ability and contribution to lead troops, and allowed Shen Ning to expand his force. Let him be the master.

Shen Ning's relationship is so tough now. He is Li Yuanxiao's son-in-law and Sima Haiyun's sworn brother. As long as he behaves well, Sima will not be stingy in promoting him.

With Sima Yue's words, Shen Ning could recruit troops with confidence and boldness.

In addition, at the end of the letter, Sima Haiyun also brought a very big news:
When Wang Beichuan and another patriarch led two thousand troops to attack the counties of Chengyang County in Qingzhou, they were ambushed and the two thousand troops were wiped out!Wang Beichuan was also killed!
Seeing this, Shen Ning immediately handed the letter to Li Ru.

After Li Ru saw it, he smiled and said, "This is the signal! Wang Xiao doesn't want to wait any longer, and is ready to do it!"

"That's right! The entire army of two thousand soldiers and horses was wiped out. This news is explosive enough. Now everyone is attracted by this news. The Southeast King must be furious and wants to take revenge! Wang Beichuan colluded with Qingzhou soldiers and horses to set up this trap, and he pretended it by the way." Get out of the way and deceive others! If we hadn't known about Wang Xiao's conspiracy in advance, who would have thought that this was Wang Xiao's bitter trick? I believe other people must think that Wang Xiao and Qingzhou are at odds!" Shen Ning said with emotion.

Sure enough, we can't just look at things on the surface. They are enemies on the surface, but they may be inseparable behind the scenes. You are my brother and I am your brother.

Li Ru returned the letter to Shen Ning, and said: "The other party's plan has begun, and our plan must also begin. When will you leave for Pengcheng?"

Shen Ning said: "Let's go tonight! If Sima Jiong's soldiers want to come quietly, it will take five or six days at the earliest. As for the action, it may take ten days. We already know that Wang Xiao has won over the city guard in the south of the city Du Kang opened the city gate, but we don't know who Wang Xiao colluded with the city guard camp. I went back earlier to find out the spies, so as to ensure that the plan was safe. At this time, Uncle Li also knew that the Wang family was going to attack, and his confidants Soldiers and horses will also be dispatched, sir will stay here and wait."

In order for Wang Xiao to invade Pengcheng and take the southeast palace, it is inevitable that the guard camp will not be able to support it. There are three military leaders and one master in the guard camp. It is not known who has taken refuge in Wang Xiao, so it must be investigated clearly.

"Young master, you must be careful." Li Ru reminded.

Afterwards, Shen Ning called Lu Xun and he accompanied him. The two of them traveled through the night and followed the crowd into Pengcheng early the next morning.

The two went directly to Yue Yidao's home.

Since the establishment of the Beggar Gang, Yue Yidao has integrated all the beggars in Pengcheng, and there are as many as 500 disciples in the gang.However, most of them are beggars who follow the general trend and are useless. Once the beggar gang encounters a life-and-death plan, it will fall down and disperse. This means that the foundation is too weak and there is no sense of belonging.

But for Shen Ning, the original intention of establishing the Beggar Clan was to find out information.

When Yue Yidao saw Shen Ning, he was quite surprised, and asked: "Didn't laymen lead the army to suppress bandits?"

"I came back quietly. Do you have any clues about the four people you asked to investigate?" Before Shen Ning left, he asked Yue Yidao and Zhu Hongying to jointly investigate the four generals of the guard camp.

Yue Yidao nodded, and quickly took out the collected information, Shen Ning frowned after reading it.

The information was too trivial, and it was impossible to find out who was bribed by Wang Xiao.

Shen Ning did not complain about Yue Yidao, after all, all the information he could collect was the most superficial, if he could directly find out who had the problem, then it would be false.

"Isn't there any information about Zhu Hongying?" Shen Ning asked.

Yue Yidao replied: "Miss Zhu is quite busy recently, it seems that there are other important matters, and I haven't had the chance to see her these few days."

Upon hearing this, Shen Ning immediately guessed the reason, that is, the master of Yin Yang Dao came, and they should be preparing to rescue Zhu Wanshan in the dungeon of the Southeast Prince's Mansion, so Zhu Hongying had no time to investigate.

"Go find Wang Beifeng and tell him to wait for me at the old place!" Shen Ning ordered.

Go ahead and do it immediately.

An hour later, Shen Ning brought Lu Xun to the teahouse and met Wang Beifeng.

Wang Beifeng cupped his hands and said, "Young master is here."

Shen Ning noticed that he was smiling, with joy between his brows, and immediately understood the reason for his happiness, and asked, "Wang Beichuan died in battle, are you happy?"

Wang Beifeng couldn't hold back his smile any longer, and nodded.

Snapped!
Unexpectedly, Shen Ning's familiar slap swung over and slapped him on the face just like before.

Wang Beifeng trembled in fright, covered his face and looked at Shen Ning, not knowing why he was beaten.

"Do you think Wang Beichuan is really dead? You really pity you. You have done so many things for Wang Xiao, but he still hides everything from you!" Shen Ning said sarcastically.

Wang Beifeng's eyes widened, his voice trembling, and he asked, "What do you mean, my lord?"

Shen Ning didn't continue to hide from him, but told all about Wang Beichuan's fraudulent death and Wang Xiao's conspiracy with Sima Jiong.

After hearing this, Wang Beifeng felt as if he had been kissed by a snake, and felt chills all over his body.

"No wonder, no wonder he secretly met Du Kang without telling me two days ago. It turned out that he planned this way, but he didn't tell me anything and kept it from me. Wang Xiao, you never made sure to be your son, you only regarded me as your son. A dog, running around for you!"

Wang Beifeng roared angrily, his red eyes representing anger.

Shen Ning asked: "Has there been any news about Wang Xiao recently? What Wang Xiao committed this time was a serious crime. If you can bear the crime and perform meritorious service, you will be the one who decides the Wang family in the future. Do you understand?"

As soon as Wang Beifeng was quick-witted, he immediately turned his grief into joy, and quickly revealed the whole situation he had investigated.

Wang Beifeng's information was much more useful. For example, the number of guards and martial artists in the Wang family increased significantly, Wang Xiao was bedridden because of "Wang Beichuan's death", and the rich family members came to express their condolences, etc.

Among the many intelligences, Shen Ning keenly grasped an important clue.

"You said that Sima Lie, the military leader of the city guard camp, disappeared for a while when he went to your home to express his condolences yesterday?" Shen Ning asked.

Wang Beifeng nodded and affirmed: "Sima Lie came with Master Chu Haoran, but for convenience, he left for a while. Oh, by the way, it was Wang Xiao's confidant who guided him."

The corner of Shen Ning's mouth raised, and finally found a useful clue.
